Buying Professional Services presents unique challenges, with fluid specifications, non-recurring needs, and changing internal customers. Companies of any size, consistently relying on external Professional Services, often find existing procurement solutions ill-suited to their specific requirements. As expenditure for these services can account for 3 to 10% of revenue, efficient procurement processes are essential. Late involvement of procurement teams, due to unfamiliarity with guidelines, underestimation of standardization benefits, or negative past experiences, further complicates matters. Additionally, many companies face inadequacies in personnel, methods, and technology, with common source-to-contract (S2C) and purchase-to-pay (P2P) solutions proving unsuitable for professional services procurement. All this creates an urgent need for an innovative solution to address these challenges and empower procurement. apadua offers a best-of-breed SaaS platform tailored for Professional Services procurement. Designed specifically to address the challenges faced by companies with regular Professional Services demand, apadua bridges methodological and technological gaps, complementing existing sourcing tools.

SpendAgent helps companies discover, manage, and optimize the money they spend on software. Unintended consequences and challenges have emerged as businesses have started embracing Cloud applications. The disruptive nature of SaaS and Cloud applications is a double edged sword for enterprises. On one hand it enables business users to rapidly deploy software solutions that help them increase productivity and do their jobs more effectively. On the other hand, this ability to quickly get an application deployed in the cloud means that these applications don't always get the appropriate level of oversight from IT and Procurement when they're purchased. With this rapid proliferation of SaaS and Cloud based solutions, enterprises are struggling to understand how and where they're spending money on software. This challenge is only going to become more complex over time as more and more applications become available in the Cloud. Our platform will discover the SaaS applications you've deployed in the cloud and also help identify how much you're spending on these applications. SpendAgent offers market intelligence and potential substitutes for the applications it discovers. With SpendAgent, you'll quickly know which applications are deployed, as well as who is using them and how much they cost.
